Best Unit Converter For iPhone and iPod Touch?

Here’s a review of the Convert unit converter and calculator from Tap Tap Tap.

This is my absolute favorite unit conversion app for the iPhone and iPod Touch.

It’s incredibly simple to use, and has some pretty sweet features.

Here’s the iTunes link if you want to download it:

I hope you enjoyed the review!

Have a good one,

Too Many OpenFeint Friends?

Here’s the Friday Giveaway video for February 26th.

I also wanted to apologize if I haven’t accepted your OpenFeint friend request yet … they’re starting to pile up on me, and it’s extremely difficult (and time consuming) to add them one by one in the existing app.

Maybe OpenFeint will make an update soon that makes it a little easier to “approve all” friends?

Anyway … I hope you all enjoy the FG video.

Congrats to the winners, and have an AWESOME weekend!

Talk soon,

Ryan

p.s. Here’s the iTunes link to the OpenFeint iPhone App. (my username is UniqueApps) ;-)

How To Launch A New iPhone App?

Most of you know that we’re getting ready to launch our very first game here at Unique Apps… we’re extremely excited, as well as a little nervous!

I’ve been working full time on the internet for the last 7 years, but this whole iPhone scene is a completely new beast … things are different here.

So, although I’ve built many successful companies over the years, I consider myself a complete “NEWBIE” when it comes to marketing on the iPhone.

Our first iPhone apps have done well, but our decision to pursue game development has not only been because of market research, but also a very personal decision.

Not only are iPhone games one of the hottest markets right now … we actually REALLY enjoy playing them…. So it’s kind of a win/win for us! ;-)

Anyway … this new game has kept me up for hours trying to really figure out the best way to launch this.

I’ll be sharing A LOT of the “behind the scenes” stuff that we are doing, but I mainly wanted to share a post from Tap Tap Tap today.

During my countless hours of scouring the internet for tips and strategies on launching iPhone apps, I came across a BRILLIANT post from Phill Ryu, one of the parters of Tap Tap Tap.

His post is called “The Cookie Cutter Guide to Charting in the App Store” , and has been one of my favorite reads OF ALL TIME about marketing on the iPhone.

I think any iPhone developer can learn something from that post, and I would even go as far to say that if you don’t learn anything… then read it again … ;-)

The lessons in Phill’s post are not only insightful, but incredibly simple … things that ANY iPhone developer can start working on NOW to ensure success in this market.

So, if you are an iPhone developer … hell … If you’re marketing ANYTHING on the internet, then I think you can learn a thing or two from this post.

I hope you enjoy the read, and I look forward to sharing more with you soon!

Have a great day,

Ryan

p.s. If you’ve come across any good articles about marketing iPhone apps, I would love to hear about them. Feel free to leave a comment below,
or to contact me. … Thanks! ;-)

2010 Winter Olympics Schedule App


Today marks the first day of the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver … The 2010 Winter Olympics Opening Ceremony!

I figured in the spirit things … I’d show you guys the cool iPhone app dedicated to the olympics.

It’s a great application that shows featured videos, photos, and schedules of the entire event.

My favorite part of the application is the schedules.

You can now get an olympic schedule of any event on tv or online.

You can also sort the schedules by category or event type.

Another really cool feature about this application is you can get alerts on your iPhone or iPod Touch for any event schedule you want.

Check it out free in the app store here:

NBC Olympics App – Click here to open iTunes

I hope you enjoyed the demonstration!

Have a great day, and enjoy the 2010 Olympic Opening Ceremonies tonight!
